I'm getting this error message when I try to place certain photos from a folder into my Photoshop document.

I'm working with an RGB PSD at 300 dpi. I'm placing multiple photos into the document, and have placed dozens from a folder that contains my source images.

Some of the photos, however, when I attempt to place them return this error message, while the majority have placed in my docment as expected. I cannot find any explanation for the half dozen or so that are not placing properly.

Thanks for the google results but of course that was the first thing I tried. None of them refer to my scenario, including the PDF you pointed out. That is in reference to placing Illustrator documents and non-printing objects, which of course should not apply to placing .jpg images.

There was a artical further down in the second link that mention that if the picture was set to not be able to copy or something near that wording then the error would show up. Might have been set to be able to print or not printable (as if in a copy protection on the picture)

Just a few trouble-shoots: Have you tried copying one of the photos out to your dektop then opening? If they open then, the doler may have some kind of restrictions on it. If that doesnt work, open a photos in somthing like MS Paint, cut it, and paste into a photoshop document and save over the original. Maybe the files are corrupted in a weird way.
